The most convenient, although not the cheapest, means of transportation to your hotel is to take a taxi. The cost should be between 40 and 80 euros depending on traffic and the amount of luggage you have. After collecting your luggage at the airport follow the signs to Taxis.
A third option is to take an Air France bus. Buses labeled LES CARS AIR FRANCE are available to all passengers regardless of your airline. There are several different bus routes, but you should take LINE 4. You can purchase a ticket either at one of the Air France counters in the airport or directly from the driver. One way fare is 16.50 euros or you can purchase a round trip ticket for 27. Travel time is about one hour but varies depending on traffic. Buses depart approximately every 30 minutes from four different places at Charles de Gaulle Airport:
Terminal 1 - Exit 34 (Arrivals level)
Terminal 2A-2C - Exit C2
Terminal 2D-2B - Exit B1
Terminal 2E-2F - Gallery level, Exit 3
Get off the bus at the first stop at the Gare de Lyon. From here you can take a taxi to your hotel (2 kilometers away) or take the metro to the Nation stop, either on the RER A red line toward Boissy St Leger or Marne La Vallee, or on the yellow line #1 toward Chateau de Vincennes, and then it's a 10 minute walk to the hotel on Rue du Faubourg Saint-Antoine.
